Vivant Cave

Italian-inspired Delicacies

Under chef Pierre Touitou, this wine bar has been reinvented with casual cuisine incorporating fresh Italian ingredients. Buffalo mozzarella straight from Naples, Sicilian-inspired pasta dishes, and whole-baked fish are on the menu, accompanied by natural wines that have been a Vivant signature since it opened in 2012.
